7-ELEVEN, HOP INN HOTEL BOOST TIE-UP WITH ALABANG C-STORE

to keep pace with the growing demand for value-for-money hotel accommodation and retail shopping conveniences, top C-store chain brand 7-eleven and fast-growing thai-owned budget hotel chain Hop Inn have partnered to bring both service features closer to their customers. Just recently, 7-eleven and Hop Inn strengthened their partnership with the opening of a fourth C-store outlet at Hop Inn-Alabang Hotel along Market Street in Madrigal Business Park, Muntinlupa City. Hop Inn Hotel Alabang is a 168-room tower that offers guests sophisticated, no-frills accommodation experience through modern amenities and premium hospitality service standards at best-value rates. Via the ongoing partnership, Hop Inn will be complementing its hotel branches in the Metro with 7-eleven stores as a way of better catering to their guests’ needs. the move, in return, will significantly expand the foothold and customer base of 7-eleven in the country under its exclusive licensor, Philippine Seven Corp. (PSC). Apart from the new Hop Inn Alabang C-store, other 7-eleven branches have opened in Hop Inn ermita along MH Del Pilar; Hop Inn Aseana Business Park in Barangay tambo, Parañaque City and Hop Inn tomas Morato in Diliman, Quezon City. Both PSC and Hop Inn Hotel have confirmed plans of boosting their partnership by opening more C-stores, starting with the soon-to-rise Hop Inn Hotel branch in Cebu Business Park. to date, 7-eleven’s store network counts at 2,551 outlets, with 1,429 franchise stores.
